Hey guys, i was never keeping it long anyway but thinking about getting rid of it while its in mint condition like without a mark on it etc.. 
 
Quick description. 
 
Corsa GSi with C16xe engine, 65000 miles, all mot's from 1994 to present day to back up mileage, doing around 5k a year. Big reciept for engine work in 2003, oil pump, water pump, lots of seals etc, car is good runner no taps, knocks or smokes etc. 
 
Bodywork is also immaculate and untouched apart from the wheels and lowering. 
 
I was thinking about 2k ish, what do people think i could get ? 
 
About 11 months MOT and 2 month's tax aswell. 
 
  
  
 
Thanks Rob.

2k would be a safe estimate. Fuck knows why any Gsi is going for 2.4 these days

dont see why not? poverty spec on worse condition probably fetch £1500. no reason why a perfect GSi to the right person is worth £2k. i would.

Why is it so hard to comprehend a mint car of any type is always worth more than normal to someone.

Thats the thing with 2nd hand cars, its a 12 year old corsa so 2k seems like a lot compared to what you could get for that but you won't find a decent GSI for less than that. It's basically worth what ever someone is willing to pay for it.  
 
Good choice on the new car by the way

that why there is the A1, good, poor, and trade parts to how much a car is priced at. This falls under A1, it is no better than A1 in facts its probably impossible to get any better than A1, therefore it is a corsa gsi in a1 condition
